Arumugam, a poor man, lives with his wife, daughter and son. Though they are very poor, they are a jovial and loving family. Arumugam starts looking for a groom for his daughter, Uma. Soon, he come across Bhaskaran (Karthik), a well-paid engineer in Neyveli. Arumugam likes him immediately. Soon the groom visits the bride's family and finds that they live in poverty. The visit is a hilarious scene in the film where the family doesn't own a chair for the people who come to visit them. Uma likes him immediately and they marry soon. Arumugam and his family loves Bhaskaran as their own son. They take care of him so well. Arumugam takes Bhaskaran to a doctor and asks him to give a guarantee card for his son-in-law's life. Later, when the doctor take some scans, it is seen that Bhaskar has brain tumor. He is heart-broken to hear that. He informs this only to Kuriakose. He asks Kuriakose to marry his wife after his death, but Kuriakose says that he'll marry Uma off to someone else, as he is her brother. Bhaskaran writes a letter to his wife Uma, about his disease and keeps it hidden for her to find it after his death. Soon Bhaskaran goes blind and Uma reads his letter by mistakenly. Heartbroken Uma, who couldn't bear to watch him die, consumes poison and dies soon. It is later shown that Bhaskaran is taken to USA to cure the tumor. The story ends like, in today's world with all the medical innovation, everything can be cured, we need to be emotionally strong to face that.
The music was composed by M. S. Viswanathan. The lyricist of the song "Sudaraga Oliyaga" is not credited on the LP records, where the song itself does not appear.[6][7]
Jayamanmadhan of Kalki wrote Visu is stunning in the comedy, the compelling knotted story, the gripping characters and the heart-wrenching sadness at the end, all of which are underpinned by his dialogues.[8]
